Looks good on the Heritage too.

I have a set of peacemakers on my flht.
The valve will seize up if you never open or close it.
The first time it happened, I pulled the pipes and cleaned the carbon out.
The second time I ran a dowel up the pipe and gave it a gentle tap to unstick it.
I run it from full open to full closed at least once on most rides.
If you open and close it once in a while it will work just fine.

Do any of you guys running this setup have the issue of not being able to pull the transmission dipstick without removing the pipe?

Default Performance

I must say the pipes sond very good but has any one done before n after dyno runs to see the actual performance increase? any confirmation of the performance of this pipe? Not knocking anything but I would like to see.

I went out and checked this morning. I was interested since I have these pipes and I had seen this comment before. I had zero issues in removing my tranny dipstick.

I included this exhaust as part of my overall stage 1 change. I was not worried about significant performance improvements but i am happy with how the bike responded to the changes. It was totally stock before this.

What bike? Dynas are the bikes I've read about with this problem.

Maybe they used a set for another model by mistake? Early production flaw? I think I had read of this also, but it was older info. Not seen any recent complaints.
